Chapter 1417 Happy Rabbit
Getting further and further away from the Iron Sky Kingdom, the young demonic cultivator stared feeling more and more relaxed. Clearly sensing that the strength of the people inside the chaotic region created in the absence of the Sky Empire was nowhere near enough to threaten him…
Whoosh-!
"Ah!? What is that?!"
"Noo-"
So, with that in mind, the young demonic cultivator didn't waste any time, as he quickly descended upon an outpost created by an empire for the purpose of mining a spirit stone mine. Killing all of the people inside the outpost without a second thought before using their blood and qi to rapidly recover his own strength, something he hadn't gotten the opportunity to do inside the territory of the Star Shattering Sect.
After all, he had been closely observed inside the territory of the Star Shattering Sect and would end up potentially being killed if he dared to do anything that disturbed the peaceful atmosphere than seemed to be present inside the Star Shattering Sect\s territory.
Of course, even though he did end up devouring quite a few cultivators, he was still not fully recovered, as the strength of the cultivators were only between the Qi Condensation Realm and the Domain Lord Realm. Far from enough to help a Peak True Demon Realm demonic cultivator like himself to recover after the near-death situation he had experienced while travelling from the Frozen Wastelands to the territory of the Star Shattering Sect.
Because of this, after wiping out the first outpost established by one of the many empires interested in harvesting the countless resources present in the chaotic region left behind by the fall of the Sky Empire, he wasted no time in heading towards the second to continue rapidly recovering his strength by devouring these cultivators.
Making sure that the outpost he ended up targeting didn't have anything to do with the Star Shattering Sect beforehand, as he understood full well that he wasn't entirely safe from them and would likely still end up dead if he ended up attacking one of their outposts.
In the end, because of this, countless outpost that had only recently been established in the chaotic region ended up being wiped out overnight without anyone knowing what had happened. Giving the Star Shattering Sect the opportunity to expand into these areas before anyone new could be send to the different resource gathering location. Wasting no time in making use of the increased number of Domain Lord Realm cultivators in the sect to secure these areas and prevent anyone else from taking them.
Although there was indeed a lack of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators when it came to securing these different locations in the chaotic region, the Iron Sky Kingdom located not too far away ended up becoming the perfect guardian of these smaller outposts, as the rabbit demon beasts ended up becoming the one in charge of ensuring the safety of these outposts in case they ended up encountering someone in the Soul Ascension Realm.
Soon enough, this resulted in the terror of the rabbit demon beast spreading across the chaotic region, as it took its job extremely seriously. Killing several Soul Ascension Realm cultivators in the first few weeks following the expansion of the Star Shattering Sect into the chaotic region.
The reason for it being so active and taking on this new job without any complaints was rather simple, as it found out that it would be able to keep whatever it got from killing the different Soul Ascension Realm cultivators causing trouble for the sect… And the wealth of a Soul Ascension Realm cultivator was by no means small. Even surpassing that of some smaller Nascent Soul Realm Sects.
In a sense, the rabbit demon beast even started looking forward to whenever any problems occurred on the different outposts of the sect. Hoping that the one who was causing trouble would be someone in the Soul Ascension Realm.
Of course, even if it was only someone in the Domain Lord Realm, the rabbit demon beast still managed to get a lot of resources and spirit stones from killing them… Though… Not as much as it would get from killing someone in the Soul Ascension Realm.
In the end, it became a rather happy rabbit and even began feeling unwilling to give up its current position as the guardian of the Iron Sky Kingdom when Yi Min came back. Staying at the Iron Sky Kingdom was far better than staying inside the sect, where it couldn't easily get its hands on as many spirit stones as it could staying at the Iron Sky Kingdom.
Not just that, but it would be difficult for it to command so many ser- subordinates inside of the Star Shattering Sect, as most of its current subordinates did not have the qualifications to enter the Shattered Star Peaks.
Even if it wanted to vouch for them to enter the Shattered Star Peaks, it had a feeling that even its master would step in to stop it from brining so many people inside the Star Shattering Sect's main sect.
After all, at this point in time, it had managed to grow its number of subordinates to well over 200. Most of them being humans that it had taken in from the Iron Sky Kingdom, while a few of them were demon beasts it had encountered during the past few weeks it had been active in the chaotic region.
Squeak…
Thinking about all of these things as it slumped down inside the majestic palace that it had turned into its own home at this point in time, the rabbit demon beast decided to not think too hard about what it was going to do. Instead taking out one of the Top-Grade Spirit Stones that its master had rewarded it with before starting to slowly nibble away at it with an overjoyed expression on its face.
…
"This should have solved the problem with the demonic cultivators for now, the only problem is that I have no idea what that little fellow is up to…"
A few weeks earlier back when the young demonic cultivator had just left the territory of the Star Shattering Sect, Xuan Hao was silently gazing in the direction of the Iron Sky Kingdom as he muttered this to himself with a somewhat troubled expression on his face.
Although the situation of the Star Shattering Sect in the upcoming battles between the demonic cultivators of the Frozen Wastelands and the Blue Sea Empire should have significantly improved compared to before, he could not help feeling a bit uneasy not knowing what that young demonic cultivator was up to.
Even though he understood that the other party's identity as a blood child was rather unique, he also understood that this likely meant that whatever he was going to do had something to do with the Frozen Wastelands Demon King.
The entire situation made him feel rather uneasy, but there was not much he could do at this point in time outside of hoping that his earlier attempt to fool the other party into believing that the Star Shattering Sect was an ancient hidden sect had worked.
Of course, outside of that blood child believing it, it was also important for the Demon King behind the blood child believing it.
Though… Xuan Hao wasn't too worried about this, as the Star Shattering Sect did indeed seem a bit too unnatural in its rapid rise and sudden appearance.
Even if he went out of his way to tell everyone that the Star Shattering Sect wasn't a hidden ancient sect, it was unlikely that many would believe him. Especially after they confirmed the existence of cultivators above the Soul Ascension Realm inside the sect.
Not to mention, in case someone in the Demon King Realm or Celestial Immortal Realm ended up showing up to personally confirm the situation, there was a high chance that they would be convinced that the Star Shattering Sect was a hidden ancient sect due to the presence of the chaotic qi formation guarding the Shattered Star Peaks.
After all, that formation was more than capable of blocking someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm or Demon King Realm from peeking inside the sect. Giving the illusion that the sect was indeed far stronger than it actually was.
"All things considered, I guess the Star Shattering Sect should just become a hidden ancient sect- Yes! From now on, the sect is a hidden ancient sect that has existed for an untold number of years. Hidden away in the mysterious Shattered Star Peaks for tens of thousands of years before emerging to recruit a few new disciples!"
Saying this to himself, Xuan Hao felt that it would be a believable story… And so, he went to Elder Song to discuss the situation to officially spread rumors of the Star Shattering Sect being an ancient hidden sect. Hoping that it would be able to fool the different powers like the Blue Sea Empire, who might have already started to get interested in the Star Shattering Sect.
